"The property is located right at the heart of the city and in front of Kapitan Keling Mosque, one of the many landmarks and touristic attractions of Georgetown. The staff was very polite and helpful, and the property is very nice and has this very nice style. Our room was spacious, very comfortable and we had a very nice view from the mosque (only issue was being awakened by it at 5 AM every morning, but they had earplugs at the reception to help with that)."

"My double room was very comfortable, and the fan, together with the aircon, made the space really airy and I slept very well. It could get slightly noisy at times as the room faces the main street, but it was mostly peaceful. Having to share the bathroom did not bother me much as it's right across the hallway anyway. It is right around the corner from Little India and it was so easy to get to all major attractions. Extremely good value for the price. "
